Tottenham Hotspur host Southampton this afternoon.
Tottenham Hotspur need a result today, after disappointing results against Olympiacos, Leicester City and Colchester United.
Mauricio Pochettino is coming under pressure from some quarters of the Spurs support, and now needs a result and performance against his former club.
Hugo Lloris starts in goal, returning in place of Paulo Gazzaniga.
Serge Aurier, Toby Alderweireld, Jan Vertonghen and Danny Rose start in a back four across defence.
Moussa Sissoko, Harry Winks and Tanguy Ndombele feature as the midfield three, with Christian Eriksen behind Harry Kane and Son Heung-min in attack.
That means Dele Alli is on the bench, alongside Gazzaniga, Eric Dier, Ben Davies, Victor Wanyama, Lucas Moura and Erik Lamela.
Meanwhile, Southampton enjoyed a morale-boosting win over bitter rivals Portsmouth in the Carabao Cup and will be looking to take that into today’s game.
Angus Gunn starts in goal, with Cedric Soares, Jan Bednarek, Maya Yoshida and Ryan Bertrand across the back four.
Oriol Romeu joins James Ward-Prowse and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is midfield, with Nathan Redmond and Sofiane Boufal supporting Danny Ings in attack.
Jannik Vestergaard is only on the bench, alongside Harry Lewis, Jan Valery, Kevin Danso, Stuart Armstrong, Shane Long and Michael Obafemi.
